#and our boys are still out here killing it 16 years later

[smtown-tourist]

Thinking back on SHINee’s debut and how SM debuted them with NO warning whatsoever. No teasers, no announcement, didn’t even warn their PARENTS, just a music video and then a debut stage a few days later, and our boys STILL managed to have fans in the crowd at their debut stage and win a Rookie All-Kill.

SM threw them to the wolves and instead of getting eaten alive, SHINee came out covered in blood and wearing their pelts. Truly some badass shit

HI

Maybe you seen me in @transingthoseformers asks and wondered "Wow, what the fuck is wrong with this guy?"

Many years of catholic trauma

ANYWAYS, YES, I'M MAKING AN AU

So like, to understand this AU you need to understand three things

1) My genuine belief that tf1 Optimus will be tied or connected somehow in the creation of new sparklings

2) The fact that merging with the Matrix is considered "Interfacing" (IDW Optimus put it this way, not me)

3) My interpretation that the Matrix and the bearer are constantly spark merging.

I lied it's 4) My obsession with the Virgin Mary, she should have been at the cluuuub

So, the AU starts by Optimus somehow in the surface, his entire frame has been aching for a while but he is still needed to fight the Decepticons and the Quintessons.

Maybe a fight goes wrong, but it sends him panicking because his HUD just fucking told him "Emergence protocols initiated" and it's a little earlier because of the fight but that's not an impediment, the little one wants out and he wants out now

So you might want to guess, where does our dear Prime go to give birth?

.

.

.

.

That's right! The cave of the Primes! You get nothing for guessing correctly <3

Plot twist; Optimus didn't have a forge, another thing Sentinel took from the miners. The Matrix gave it back when restoring his frame, after all, it needed it for restoring the rest of the Primes. So yeah he freaks out a lot a lot

And yes! He is going through this TWELVE more times

The first one is Prima naturally, the little one gives Megatron a run for his money in "things that nearly killed Optimus multiple times" and almost gets stuck in the birth canal once or twice (Optimus doesn't want to think what would have happened to them both if his coding hadn't kicked in at the right moment) and Optimus can't see the little one without getting his carrier coding out of hand and deciding right then and there that he needed to find a sire for their sake. Also Optimus absolutely loves the little bastard like he hung the moons and the stars

And all the time, he felt the presence of other mechs in the cave with him. Someone definitely helped him stay upright, and he could squeeze his hand around a much much larger one when the contractions hit.

Right so he goes back to base, and everyone pretty much noticed how white and gold the sparkling is. Everyone assumes that somehow D-16 is the sire, keeping on brand with the platinated colors, and, well, Optimus doesn't correct them. Besides, it was just one sparkling, what harm could it do if a few rumors ran around here and there?

Ohhhh boy, not a week later, he discovers that maybe it won't be just one sparkling.

Also, I'm naming this au Primes Reborn, and you can't stop me

The Lion of the Trident

Summary - After Rhaegar's defeat on The Trident, Robert and Ned must deal with the Prince's surviving forces, including Y/N Lannister.

Warnings - age gaps (Y/N is about 16/17 while Ned and Robert are 19/20), canon character death, general GOT warnings, ableist language (toward Tyrion), mentions of violence, sexual content

Y/N was awoken to the feel of frigid water pouring down on him. 

He shot up, gasping and shivering. He pushed himself further into the makeshift outdoor prison cell, covering himself further in mud. He shook his hair out as the chilled water settled deep into his bones, glaring up at the men responsible. 

“I know I stink, but that’s not quite the bath I had in mind.” Y/N’s words didn’t quite land the way he’d hoped with the shivers racking him visible to the men standing over him. 

“King Robert wishes to speak with you.” 

Y/N laughed, “King? I wasn’t aware Aerys had died?” 

The two men didn’t grant the Lannister heir with a response, grabbing his arms and dragging him to his feet. He attempted to jerk his arms free from the men’s grasp, but the days spent chained to a pole with little food and water had weakened him enough that the two men had no trouble dragging him to Robert’s tent. 

Realizing he had no choice but to let this farce take place, Y/N steeled himself holding his head high as they walked through the camp. He smiled at the jeers thrown his way, finding himself laughing at quite a few. The days of abuse, physical and verbal, he’d suffered at the hands of the usurpers were nothing compared to the years living in his father’s tight grasp. Perhaps if they set Lord Tywin in front of the young knight he’d have been more forthcoming with his information. 

Robert Baratheon looked exactly how Y/N remembered him, towering over every lord in his tent. Y/N’s eyes trailed down the Baratheon’s body, gaze settling on a fresh bandage applied around his torso. 

“Sit him down.” Ned Stark spoke, drawing Y/N’s attention away from the Stormlander. Y/N grunted as he was forced into a chair, wincing as the rough wood of the seat made contact with the bruises no doubt littering his body. The two men were dismissed, and Robert and Ned turned their full attention to Y/N. 

“While I admire the efforts, you will be getting no valuable information from me.” Y/N spoke, taking in the different reactions from the two men. Ned winced at the reminder of the Lannister’s treatment in the camp, while Robert simply frowned, scowl deepening. 

“Has Tywin Lannister declared for the Targaryens?” Robert asked, and Y/N laughed, wincing half a second later at the pain it caused him. Tywin Lannister was still holed up at Casterly Rock with Cersei and Tyrion, leaving Jamie and Y/N to fight their own battles. 

“Did you see the Lannister forces at The Trident, Robert?” 

“I saw you.” 

Y/N smiled, “And you caught me.” 

“Are you saying you were with Rhaegar’s forces against your Lord father’s wishes?” Ned asked. 

“Which answer would make you less inclined to kick me in the ribs?” Y/N asked, if the two men brought him here for information they might as well get on with it. Y/N wishes to return to bed, finding small comforts in his sleep, as fitful as it was. 

Once again, Y/N’s words made the Stark flinch. “I apologize for your treatment, it was not our intention-” 

“Save it, Ned.” Y/N spat. “I am not a boy, I know how war works. I chose the losing side, and now my fate lies in your hands. If you’re going to have me killed as a traitor I’d rather you just get on with it, perhaps the afterlife will have less mud.” 

Robert barked out a laugh, “Alright.” 

“Robert-” 

“You heard the man, Ned.” Robert said. “He is of no use to us.” 

“If he speaks true,” Robert made to interrupt, but Ned continued on ignoring his friend. “If he speaks true, Lord Tywin has not yet declared for a side. If we have his son, his heir, he may be more sympathetic to our cause.” 

Y/N scoffed, “My father has two other sons.” 

“The kingsguard and the imp?” Robert raised an eyebrow and Y/N frowned. Tyrion was a child of the House Lannister, and even that it seemed would not save him from the realms scorns. Robert was right in his statement, however, Jamie was a sworn knight of the kingsguard, and his father could not even look at his youngest son let alone declare him heir. 

“I am not just some whore who’s body you can sell.” Y/N spat. 

“The whispers I hear would say differently.” 

“What the fuck are you implying.” Y/N sneered at the same time Ned let out a choked ‘Robert’. 

Robert held his hands up in mock surrender, dropping the topic. Ned sighed, turning to Y/N, “I know we are not friends Ser Y/N, but you are a fine knight, and with you and your house’s support behind us in this war we can win.” 

“You’re already winning.” Y/N deflated, it was true. Rhaegar was dead, and from Jamie’s reports Aerys was madder than ever. The war was practically over, and Y/N Lannister had chosen the wrong side. “You do not need the support of my father or me.” 

“Would you rather die?” Robert asked, his eyes scanning the knight in a way that made him squirm in his seat. 

“If I must.” 

“You do not have to, Y/N.” Ned sighed, “Work with us to secure your father’s support and we will let you live.” 

Y/N bit his lip, sinking in on himself. He knew he had no real choice, they would not kill him no matter what he said, they wanted his father’s army too badly. He could either let himself be a prisoner or he could be an equal with the two men. 

“Fine, tell me what to do.”

Jamie had killed Aerys, Tywin had sacked the city, and now the throne was Roberts. Y/N however, instead of celebrating the victory with his father and brother, was in the chambers of Ned Stark, drunk, half naked, and pressed into the mattress. 

“Don’t you have a wife?” Y/N gasped as Ned roughly tugged at the laces of his trousers. 

“Do you ever shut up?” Ned asked, although his smile as he finally managed to undo the laces undercut any bite put into his words. 

Y/N laughed as Ned tugged his trouser down his legs, tossing them to the side. Ned looked up at the man, smiling, and Y/N took the opportunity to wrap his legs around Ned’s waist and flip them over. Ned gasped as his back hit the bed, and Y/N smiled down at him. He leaned down close to his ear, whispering, “No.” 

Ned grabbed the back of his head, roughly smashing their lips together. Y/N immediately relaxed into the Lord’s hold, allowing Ned to trace his mouth down his jaw. Y/N gasped as Ned pressed a soft kiss to his collarbone, before biting down roughly. Y/N ground his hips down roughly into Ned’s and the Stark’s grip in Y/N’s hair tightened as a low groan escaped his throat. 

“Have you ever shared a bed with a man before, Ned?” Ned paused, giving Y/N all the answers he needed. Y/N hummed, pushing Ned down into the bed. Ned stared up at him, chest rising and falling rapidly, and skin flushed a red that was sure to be unusual for a Northerner. “Let me teach you then, Lord Stark.” 

Before Y/N could move however the door to the chambers burst open and the men jumped apart. Ned, still half dressed, threw a blanket to Y/N who quickly grabbed it to cover himself. The men both looked to the door, where Robert, now King Robert, was standing, a jug of wine in hand. Robert did not seem shocked at the sight, an amused smile plastered on his face. 

“What do we have here?” Robert said, still smiling. He closed the door behind him with his foot, placing the jug of wine on the table near the door. He took a seat, “Well, don’t stop for me.” 

“Robert-” Robert held a hand up, and Ned closed his mouth. 

“Are you just going to watch us, Robert?” Y/N said, trying to keep his usual confidence, although he could feel his face burning. Ned made a noise at Y/N’s question, but Robert smiled. Y/N looked to Ned, who’s flush had deepened significantly, before turning back to Robert. “Because the Keep’s beds seem big enough to fit three.” 

Robert’s smile widened, and Ned made a noise that sounded like he was dying. On many drunken nights throughout their journey to Kingslanding Ned had confided in Y/N about he and Robert’s youth-fueled escapades, although they had never gone past sloppy kisses Ned had always wondered what it would have been like to cross the line. 

“What did you say to him to get him into your bed?” Robert said to Y/N. 

“He has gotten me into his bed.” Y/N said. “Although it took him more cups of wine than you to do so, my king.” 

Ned looked between the two men, opening his mouth, probably to ask about Y/N’s words, but Y/N stood dropping the blanket and all words died on Ned’s lips. Robert smirked, standing and stripping his extensive layers. Ned stood silently, looking between Y/N and Robert, and Y/N just placed his hand on Ned’s bare chest. 

“Get onto the bed,” He whispered to Ned, chuckling when the man stripped himself of his remaining clothing and laid down into the bed. Robert came to stand behind Y/N, pressing a kiss to the underside of his jaw. “Would you like to teach him or should I?” 

“You.” Robert released the man, walking toward the head of the bed. He crawled onto the bed, coming up behind Ned. He grabbed Ned’s jaw, forcing him to look at Y/N as he approached the bed. 

“Watch and learn, Ned.”

[onnahu]

Okay so I can't stop coming back to the idea of mdzs httyd au, so here's what i figured out.

It's the part 1 of deep dive into it.

It's long, I'm warning you.

The sects have their own islands, so Jiangs have the island of Yunmeng (the most to the south, i'm very set about that one), Wen's have Qishan (They're the east. Because the sun. And Japan. Like. It's not for now.)

Actually maybe I'll make up a map. If I could do Gotham I can do a chinese vikings fighting dragons map. But that's for later.

Cultivation is a thing in more of a vague term for warrior that got a bit better reflexes. So they meditade and know their herbs, but don't have magic swords and taliamans. Their strikes have a bit more of strenght in them and they're a bit faster than normal, but nothing really super special.

The chinese dragons are all the super powerful dragons. So, the Red Death from the first movie has it's chinese dragon counterpart in my au, and that's a dragon that lost the heaven's blessing and with itself turned all the dragons around it into resentful beasts. That way dragons that could normally be peaceful, under the influence of a fallen dragon become kinda hazy. Like in the movie but different.

The big dragons from second movie will also be in a form of typical chinese dragon, and once again, the one that Drago control's is fallen from heaven's liking, but by a hand of human that destroyed it's godlyhood. The good one is a divine creature that takes care of other dragons and also the snow and storms, bringing them like heavens want it to.

So, all the dragons that the sects fight are under the undivined dragon's control, and the conflict goes on for ages already.

The sect conferences work as talks about trades, strategies against dragons, hunts for fun, but also initiations for young warriors.

The iniciation happens at 17 and then they kill their first dragon or die trying.

At the age 15 it is a tradition to send the warrior students to Gusu, an island north that is the furthest from the dragon's nest, and where the teenagers spent a few months training to bring honor to their sects during the iniciation.

I'd imagine the training in Gusu happens in winter, when the attacs from dragons are more sporadic, and the sects can let a ship go with people who normally give first aid, kill fires, transport messages and weapons.

So, young Wei Wuxian, the boy that is expected to be one of the gratest dragons slayers in Yunmeng, with his brother Jiang Cheng and few other disciples of their age are sent to partake in Gusu training.

There, Wei Wuxian meets Lan Wangji. It goes as close to canon as I can make it in this world. Lans still have their rules, although now they're more about killing dragons than kindness and things like that. Lacohol is still forbidden, and WWX still tries to get some. They fight, and find out they're equals, WWX takes on a mission of annoying LWJ to death and LWJ gets in his head he have to spoil every of WWX's mischief before they even take place.

When they practice identifying dragons and the best ways to kill them, WWX asked by LQR says something along the lines of 'wouldn't it be easier to just take control over it? Tame it like a wild animal and bring it to our side?'. LQR hates it, as could be expected.

Things go on, WWX promises JC that he would never try to tame a dragon, bc 1 it's suuuper dangerous and stupid and 2 they are enemies and dragons are all the evil in the world.

Then WWX punches JZX, the engagement is broken off, WWX leaves earlier.

LWJ composes WangXian when he's gone.

Next year, they're 16. A year more to the initiation.

The conference is hosted by Wens on the Qishan island. The initiation is happening, but WWX get's bored as soon as everyone he knows is done, so he wanders off.

He meets Wen Ning practising with a bow. He helps him, they talk, WWX has to go back. It doesn't mean that much for him, but Wen Ning will remember that - after all not many are kind to him.

LWJ and WWX briefly interact, but everyone goes home.

Not a month later, Gusu is attacked and burns, and Wens send a word to send all the clan heirs and at least two appreantices to Qishan for 'a study in a Wen way of slaying dragons'.

The indoctrination happens, and the role of Xuanwu of Slaughter takes a legendary sleeping dragon (again, a chinese dragon that's undivine). Wen Chao tries ti kill it, obviously fails, tries to take hostages, fails, WWX takes on things in his own hands, shit happens.

WWX and LWJ somehow kill the sleeping dragon, and are saved by Jiang Cheng.

Jiangs don't take actions, as per canon, and are attacked. Let's say it's early spring, and Wen's attack Yunmeng. Wen Ning saves JC, JYL and WWX, smuggles them to Yiling, an island that is on one side a quite prosperous village, and on the other a dragon hell. Wild dragons plague the island. Wen Qing helps treat their wounds.

JC saves WWX when they're spotted by unfriendly Wen soliders, and when WWX goes save JC in turn, he get's captured.

JC is free and menages to come back to Wen Qing and Wen Ning, but when they try to find WWX, there's no sign of him ever getting even captured.

JC goes to Qinghe and joins the war efforts, still looking for WWX. LWJ joins him. JYL either goes with him to be a medic or to Jins to persuade them to join the war.

WWX was, presumably, thrown into the Burial Mounds, a place that when you once entered you are ment to be eaten by dragons. He somehow befriends one dragon there, kills some that are not friendly, befriends some more. When he gets put it's on a dragon's back with revenge with mind.

JC, WWX and LWJ reunite when WWX kills Wen Chao and Wen Zhuliu with his 'demonic power' of controling dragons. LWJ tries to tell WWX that dragons are dangerous and it is known that some of them can control mind.

The war goes on, WWX changes the ties of it, they win.

The gossip about WWX and his insanity grows, WWX finds out about mistreatment of Dafan Wens, takes them to the Burial Mounds. Sects turn on him, and Wen remnants befriend the dragons.

For some time they're happy. Wen Ning is alive btw, and get's himself a bff dragon, Ghost General.

LWJ visits and tries to understand, and maybe finally starts to get the appeal of dragons, but he's not courageous enought to act.

Shit happens, JZX is killed by Suibian (WWX's bff dragon). It happens bc Jin's get control over a fallen dragon that controls Suibian. They're the Drago here.

The rest goes like canon. WQ and WN with their dragons are killed (or are they?), JYL dies, the siege happens, WWX expects death but is against his will saved by Suibian. He thinks Wen Yuan is dead. He's wrong. Suibian takes him far away, where WWX creates an asylum for dragons. He befriends a Chinese Dragon, the divine creature.

13 years later, unknown to WWX, Lan Sizhui finds a hurt dragon.

I’m a Asexual + Straight Ally

I’m a Christian who is a multi-shipper. Incase you don’t know what a multi-shipper is, a multi-shipper is someone who ships more than one thing in a fandom. For example: Zipward. I ship Zipward but I also ship Zipclaire, Edward x Engel, Bubble x Zip- you get the

Edit: I’m starting to not ship Zipward anymore but I still respect the ship

Now let me show you my ocs and who they are..

ROSS: A 16 year old girl and pansexual, she’s also part of the bullies (along with Roxer, Abigail, and more ocs that are part of the bullies that are friends with me). She’s in a relationship with Zip (OC x canon real!!) and is related to Mars as they are cousins. Ross works for Kyle as she was tricked by him. As there are ups, there are downs about her. She has done SH! on herself because of her depression, but she’s getting better as she is healing.

MARS: A 17 year old who is bisexual, he’s a junior and maybe the only surviving junior in this school for all he knows. He’s a dog shark that’s is very welcoming and friendly. He is in a relationship with Ember (side oc), I mean he’s a good doggie so yeah I can see why Ember be smooching his doggie ahh-

KYLE: A 19 year old shark boy whose attitude is not welcoming. There is a reason why he’s like that, his parents were killed by scientists that wanted to test on him, and he saw the whole thing at the age of 7-9 years old. Kyle escaped at the age 12-14 after learning a way out. He lived in the forest throughout his teenage years. He’s now a killer/assassin that forces Ross to help him out with his dirty work to kill the remaining scientists. But he’s in a relationship with Divine (side oc that will be part of the mains).

VUNET: The son of the sun that was placed on earth to protect it from any harm. He has befriended the main crew, including Kyle. (The sun father told Vunet to not always befriend everyone because they can hide secrets…) But Kyle treats him harshly like they are rivals. Vunet is not stronger than Kyle as Kyle is way more experienced in combat.

KAT: A 15-16 year old bisexual dinosaur girl who has the perfect grades as she always aces them! She’s in a relationship with Skull. (I just realized that Vunet got no beaches, that’s a fat L) Anyways she is very kind and sweet to everyone so don’t be shy to talk to her!

I have more but they are my side ocs.. so yeah🎸 THATS ALL FOR NOW

Little reminder that God loves you ✝️

He will never leave your side <3

I MAKE FUN OF MY DEPRESSION AND IT COPES ME :)

[satureja13]

The TukTuk brought the Boys to Steam Station. Where they are supposed to take the train to who-knows-where... Hopefully to get to see Ji Ho.

They are already late and Sai, Jeb and Vlad went ahead to check in. Jack, the youngest (and strongest), is in charge for their luggage - and his good 'mate', Kiyoshi, who has a not-quite-here day today. The station master told them the train is departing soon from track 1.

Better not miss it! Sai: "Come on, Vlad." Poor Vlad is still deep in despair. He wasn't able to connect to Ji Ho through the bond since Ji Ho collapsed ingame. How is this possible? He didn't even hear Sai calling him. Jeb: "Vlad. Let's go. I'm sure we are going to see him soon, hm? And Noxee said he'll be fine." It's hard to keep the spirits up. The others are worried too, and they are blaming themselves for putting their therapies over the necessity to protect themselves against the Siren's Songs and Ji Ho's evil grandfather.

Jeb bought them some sweets from the trolley and a few seconds later, they already heard the Station Master whistle.

This is the Otherworld and this isn't an ordinary train. It just moved through the portal!

But it wasn't like travelling with warp speed or teleporting. After a while, they saw the countryside go by again.

Jack: "Ouf! These were the last crates!" And to the Station Master: "From which track is the train leaving again?"

Station Master: "Oh, I fear you just missed it." Jack: "Oh no... - eh, ok. From which track is the next train leaving then?" Station Master: "There is no other train anytime soon. Not this year, at last." What? ö.ö'

Time to bring the demon/deity out in Kiyoshi. They can't loose the others and be apart from them to not summon the prophecy Future Jeb made! So Jack tried to summon Kiyoshi: "Kiyoshi - I need you. Please - come back to the here and now - to your body - back to me! I need your help!" And really - Kiyoshi blinked twice - and seemed responsive. Jack told him what happened.

Kiyoshi seemed to understand and ran outside - to the TukTuk... Jack: "Uhm, yes. The TukTuk could teleport us. But we need Vlad and Ji Ho for this. It already had been hard enough for Vlad to bring us here all on his own."

Nonetheless Kiyoshi urged Jack to climb in. His eyes started to glow - and the TukTuk rose up in the air! It took them a while to locate the train so they could follow its track.

Sai, Jeb and Vlad had been so busy and in thoughts, they hadn't even missed them! Jeb was complaining that they still don't have any signal, so they are not leaving the Otherworld as it seems.

It had started to rain again a while ago and the seeing wasn't very good, so Sai first thought he was imagining things. But soon Vlad stood up and said: "Is this what I think it is?" It was! The TukTuk!

They scrambled up and ran over to the compartment next to theirs, where they supposed Jack and Kiyoshi - it was empty...

Saiwa: "I told you yesterday - I'm the worst leader of them all." Jeb: "No you're not. It happens. We are all out of our heads, hm?"

Jeb: "It will all be well. They'll follow us and meet us there." Whereever 'there' is...

Jack: "You are unbelievable!"

The idea of a flying vehicle isn't entirely new. Last year Jeb and Sai had flewn with Francine's flying Ford Anglia to Tartosa 🚙

Outtakes

Jack fell in love with Kiyoshi! 💞

Rating: General Audiences

Warnings: Can fluff be a warning? Little bit of angst. Fred still dies, sorry.

P.s. So this is a rewrite from a fanfiction I originally wrote when I was roughly 16. It was awful, truly awful, but I adored the story so I decided to rewrite it ten years later. Enjoy.

To put my feelings in simple terms; I was terrified. But excited, a mixture of the two. 

It was finally time for me to go to Hogwarts, to escape to Hogwarts. I had waited and waited, counted down the days, and finally it was time. Time to be freed from my father's death eaters, free from the abuse and torment. It was time for me to mingle with witches and wizards my own age. 

Growing up was lonely, and awful. I had no friends, nor anyone to speak too. The death eaters I lived with mostly ignored me, and when they didn't ignore me, they were usually being horrid to me, reminding me not to be a failure, or that when my father was strong enough he'd kill me or something. Empty threats. But they scared me slightly. 

The only way I managed to get my Hogwarts supplies was so sneak out of the mansion I lived in and buy all the things I needed. However when all the stuff arrived at my house, the death eaters locked me in my room for days without food as punishment. 

That all aside, I managed to get myself and my supplies to the train station with the help of one of the house elves. I thanked them and left for the train. Walking through the corridor of the train was almost surreal, it was loud and busy. Something I had never experienced.  

I stopped by a compartment with three boys and one girl. They all looked slightly familiar, especially the blonde boy.

Smiling I opened the door, they all looked up at me, not smiling. Its like I pissed them off. 

"Sorry, could I sit here?" I asked.

The girl, scoffed at me and spat out a no. The boys said nothing but now I had a closer look at the blonde boy I knew where I recognised him from, he looked like a mini version of Mr. Malfoy, I had met him a handful of times but enough to remember his face. 

"Are you a Malfoy?" I asked him. 

He stood up, looking anger than ever and stepped closer to me. 

"And what's it to you?" He sneered.

Confidently, I held out my hand. "Rosalie Riddle, nice to meet you" I smiled, I watched them all suddenly change when I said Riddle. I may hate my father, but the name defiantly had perks.  

Malfoy sat down, and they all smiled up at me, it was kind of creepy. 

"Of course you can sit in here" The girl said, smirking I took my seat. 

The train journey mostly consisted of the three boys chatting away, and the girl trying to make conversation with me. Once we arrived at the train station, my nerves were near controlling me. I tried keeping it together, I absently played with my long black hair, a thing I usually did when I was nervous. 

I tried to shake the nerves away and followed the group towards the boats. The older students were taken to the castle via carriages pulled by Thestrals, I felt really jealous, I'd love to pet them. 

I watched Hogwarts come closer and closer, it was magnificent, maybe the most beautiful castle I had ever seen, not that I had seen many. But I was in love...

We were shuffled out of the boats and into the castle and told to wait in front of a massive set of doors. I had to be sorted into Slytherin, I didn't even want to think of the abuse if I wasn't. Which felt silly to me, they're just groups at a school. Regardless, I did hope I was in Slytherin, green was a good colour for me. 

"So what they're saying on the train is true" Malfoy started to speak, he moved away from our group. "Harry Potter has come to Hogwarts"

I suddenly felt so much rage and anger. Harry Potter; the boy who lived, the reason my father was near dead, the reason I was raised by death eaters. If he didn't exist maybe my life would be less of a hell. Probably not. 

I stayed put, I couldn't exactly start an argument here. Professor McGonagall came back to us and brought us through the Great Hall. It was magical. I forgot all about Potter when I saw the candles floating in the night sky. 

And the once the sorting hat sung a song, it was time to be sorted. Professor McGonagall started reading our names alphabetically. And when Potter's name was called our, the room was suddenly full of gasps and whispers. It made me nervous, wonder what the reaction of my name would be. 

Potter was on the chair for some time, I could read his lips, he was begging not to be put in Slytherin, like Slytherin was a illness, it annoyed me. They're just houses.. 

"Gryffindor!" The hat finally called out, Potter looked relieved, the red table roared with cheers and then Professor McGonagall called out my name. 

There wasn't gasps, or whispers. There was only silence, I couldn't tell if that was worse. Slowly I walked up, everyone's eyes on me, was enough to make me feel dizzy. I sat on the stool, and the hate was placed on my head. I couldn't react, I was so scared if people saw if I were actually scared. 

"A Riddle?" The hat spoke, even the hat sounded shocked. "You're different from the last Riddle, there's a different spark in you"

What did he mean by that, I wasn't given time to ask, as the hat screamed out 'Slytherin'

The table didn't roar with excitement the same way the Gryffindor table did, there were a few claps and that was about it. It hurt, but I can understand why. At this rate it was unlikely I'd have any friends because of my father. 

The last boy, a Weasley was put into Gryffindor, I had heard about the Weasley's, never in good light, they were blood traitors, the sort I was not suppose to interact with. 

Soon the tables were covered in food, and everyone was stuffing their faces. I had never seen this much food before, nor had I tried half of it. I ate until I felt bloated and ready to pass out into a food coma. 

When we left for our dorms, I was sharing with the girl from the train; Pansy and a girl named Daphne. She was nice. I loved our common room, it was beautiful, windows from floor to ceiling showing the outside, which was under the lake, I could see merpeople, and other creatures swimming around, it was amazing, we had a fire too, and fancy ornate looking furniture. I loved it. 

I spent my evening unpacking all my things, I had brought so many books, I basically set up my own mini library. Classes started tomorrow nice and early, and I had everything ready and I was ready.

I'll Give You the World

Kinktober Day 28 Lyle Wainfleet

Warnings: 18+, Smut, Praise, P in V Sex, Fingering, Cunnilingus

A/N: This is for you bby @loaksxhoe 😘

Dividers are by @plutism

Thank you @pandoraslxna for this event

It started off innocently enough. I was working in an abandoned file room back from the previous war, shifting through records with Corporal Wainfleet, trying to make sense of the war-torn chaos.

“What did they do here? Throw every piece of paper in the building like confetti?” I groan, grinding my teeth.

“I think they also had a party, would explain the footprints,” Waving a rumpled and dirty footprint on the stark white paper. 

Finishing with the current box I was organizing, I took it to the proper shelf to file it away, but even in an 8-foot-tall body, I still could not reach the top shelf where it was meant to go. Previously, machines would grab the box and file it properly, everything in perfect order, but those machines haven’t worked in 15 years. I struggle, trying to put the box on the top shelf before warmth covers my back. Corporal Wainfleet grabs the box, his chest resting in mine, caging me against the tall shelves.

“Don’t worry, sweetheart, I got you,” His 9’3 tall ass places the box without problem.

“Oh-um-yeah, th-thank you,” I stutter out.

“Anytime,” with that, he backs off back to our workstation.

The second time it happened, it was somber.

“I still don’t know why we’re still stuck here,” Corporal Wainfleet grumbled.

Two months later, we were still being punished, forced to work in this tiny office whenever we weren't in the field.

“I lost a kid, and you tried to kill one,” I muttered, organizing paper tower number 3.

“I didn’t know or was a damn kid!” He shouted.

I rolled my eyes at him, “It was Sully’s kid. He would have been 16 at most, more likely 14 or 15. You nearly killed the kid,” I place this paper in box number 32.

“He’s fine, ain’t he?” Wainfleet retorted.

“If you count taken hostage and in a medical-induced coma because I couldn’t stop the bleeding enough, then sure, he’s fine,” I grumble, placing this paper in box number 65.

He hisses as his ears pin back and tail swishes aggravatedly, the guilt eating at him, “You fucked up too. That's why we're both here,”

I raised my eyebrow at him, “I fucked up because I lost Spider while giving medical attention to the Sully boy. I fucked up fixing your fuck up.” I stood up, grabbed a box to put away, done with the conversation.

“Do you think it would have been better if he died?” His voice was somber.

Facing him, I see the sadness in his eyes. I lean back against the shelf, “I ask myself that every day because I made him a prisoner of the RDA.” tears slip out of my eyes. “I don’t regret fighting, making a home for humans, but that’s a child,” 

The corporal’s arms wrapped around me, his tail inching towards mine.

“I know he’s a kid, but he still had that gun and was aiming to kill,” He tried to console.

“No, he wasn’t. He was covering the others. That’s how they escaped.” I lean in closer to him, accepting his warmth.

He sighs sadly, “It's war, Darling. Things happen in war,” he tucks my head under his chin.

“I don’t give a shit about war, not when kids are forced to fight it,” my body shakes with sobs, not letting the sound leave my mouth.

“Shh, it’ll be alright, baby girl. Please don’t cry; your pretty face wasn’t made for tears,” his large hand cradled my head, helping me feel secure.

The third time was the most noticeable.

“Alright, when are you two gonna start fucking?” Lopez teased.

“Oh please, they’ve already been fucking for months now, all huddled up in the office alone,” Fike mocked, making kissing noises.

“Damn! (Y/N), you better be using protection,” ZDog chimed in, nudging my ribs.

“I wished I could say that you all came back wrong, but none of you were right in the head to begin with,” I snarked, rolling my eyes.

“Awe, don’t be like that. Lyle, come deal with your girl. You gotta help deal with her tension.” Fike commented, perching on a table away from me.

“Not her fault, you’re all idiots,” He remarks, not looking away from his coffee, “It’s too early for this shit.” With that, he shuffled away, stopping next to me, “You’re very pretty this morning,” he kissed the top of my head before returning to his room.

The lot of us all stood there shocked. You could hear a pin drop. The rest processed what they saw, and the room erupted in noise.

“Fuck, you taste so good for me,” Lyle moans as he breaks away from my slit, slick dripping down his face.

“Fuck Lyle, more! “ I demand, grinding myself onto his mouth. 

“Easy, sweetheart, you gotta learn some patience.” Lyle chuckles as he digs his tongue back into my slit.

“Yes! Just like that, feels so fucking good,” I moan.

Lyle’s fingers had been playing with my slit, easing me open, as his tongue licked inside. The tendrils inside me came out to play with his tongue, attempting to peek out of my slit, wrapping around his large tongue. Slowly, he pushes two of his fingers deep into me, stretching me deeper. 

“Fuck baby, you always take my fingers so well.” He hisses before slurping the slick that leaked out of me. 

“Shit, yes.” I pull his head closer to my slit.

Instead of his tongue, I felt Lyle nip at the edges of my slit. I gasp at stinging pain, causing my slit to tighten around his fingers as my core fills with heat. He used his tongue to soothe the affected area as he continued to kiss around my navel. 

Finally, he curled his fingers inside, bringing me intense pleasure. The tendrils inside me are as sensitive as my clit was on my previous body. And Lyle knew how to play them, how to curl his fingers, the perfect way to twist and wiggle them, fucking my slit perfectly.

“This what you like, pretty girl?” Lyle asks as he adds another finger, “My baby girl is always so good and ready for me. I didn’t even have to ask you to come here; I just walked in, and you were ready. My princess, so eager to be a good girl and cum around me. You ready for me to fuck you?” He whispers into my slit.

“Please! Please, Lyle! I want you,” I beg, the heat in my core becoming unbearable.

Lyle removes his fingers, causing me to whine, “I know, Princess, you gotta let me give you the best part.” He chuckles, lining himself up with my slit. 

Slowly he pushed in, my slit eagerly spreading for him. His spines played with my tendrils, grinding against each other in a sensual dance.

“Oh fuck, baby girl, so fucking tight on my cock, wrapping around me like a sleeve. So fucking perfect for me,” Lyle moans as he slips more of his length inside me. 

“You so fucking deep! The spines feel so good; they’re rubbing me. They feel so good, please, Lyle!” I ramble on, not sure what I am asking for. 

Next thing I know, Lyle’s lips are on mine, thrusting his tongue inside my mouth. I play with his tongue, tasting myself on his tongue as he explores each other's mouths. I feel our bodies wrap meld together, the spine son his cock melding with my tendrils as we lock together, grinding out hips to bring more pleasure as we have less room to move. My cervix was creeping closer to his tapered cock, my own body begging for a full lock.

“Good girl.” Lyle rolls his hips harshly, “Your gonna cum on my cock aren’t you, baby?” We can no longer separate, as he drags my body wherever he goes, locked by our sexes. 

The pull in my slit as he moves is intoxicating. It leaves a bruising feel as our intertwined bodies refuse to let go. The burning in my loins grew with each grind. 

“Such a good fucking girl from me. Can’t wait to fill you with my cum.” Lyle exclaims breathlessly. 

I mewl in response, wanting his cum inside me as his tip bumps against my cervix. Our slits meld together, leaving no space between us as his cock pierced my cervix. I scream as he slides in deeper, his own tendrils wrapping around my own, sealing our bodies together wholly. Not a space left between us as we came. Every wave of pleasure was in sync as I felt Lyle fill me with his cum.

“Fuck, fuck, fuck, Lyle!” I whine as pleasure rolls through me.

“Oh fuck, I’m right here, baby girl. You’re doing so good for me. I feel so fucking good filling you with my cum. You never waste a drop.” Lyle groans, rocking us. 

“Love your cum,” I moan as I come down from my high.

“I know you do, baby,” He chuckles, moving us to lay comfortably. 

I look up at him wide-eyed, “Will you give me more after?” I ask sweetly.

I see his eyes dilate as Lyle licks his lips, “Of course, baby, I’ll give you everything you want.”

[random-fandom142]

Alright I have decided that ALTA is my current hyperfixation after seeing so many videos on TikTok and Twitter (will NEVER call it X). Therefore, I drafted an entire timeline for the show with aged-up characters and Zutara endgame. Without further ado here is my idea:

Zuko – 16 (original) => 18/22

Sokka – 15 (original) => 17/21

Katara – 14 (original) => 16/20

Aang – 12 (original) => 14/18

Toph – 12 (original) => 14/18,

Suki – 15 (original) => 17/21

Azula – 14 (original) => 16/20

Winter Solstice (1st half of S1) – characters two years older

Same start as the show, Aang is told of Sozins Comet by Roku, of the power it holds and the destruction it left the last time it was over the world.

Norther Water Tribe (2nd half of S1)

This might take a little longer than in the show mainly bc the group stays in the NWT longer; they stay closer to eight months allowing Katara to surpass Pakku in waterbending (misogyny is still there). Sokka also is able to flex his brain muslces a bit more in military tactics by being part of the planning of dealing with the FN and how the NWT is gonna help (he gets them to send benders to where their father might be). Princess Yue still becomes the moon spirit…she in fact helps out Katara and Aang later on in the series. Zuko and Iroh have the same storylines happening, however, they might have a small head start being fugitives within the Earth Kingdom, Zuko starts some of his journey as the trio is still in the NWT.

Timeline is a year.

Earthbender Teacher (1st half of S2) – characters three years older (takes place over six months)

Same concept as the show, might have prolonged the moves around the Earth Kingdom closer six months. Think of them spending a few weeks in each location that they can with the added benefit of Azula/Ty Lee/Mai hunting them down. During the Anti-Avatar Day doesn’t get solved in a day but over a few weeks, the villagers are mad and they wish to be assholes. Plus they chase our Sokka and Katara after they arrest Aang, this forces the siblings to have a heart-to-heart about what they are doing. Once they get Aang back, they continue on like normal and meet Toph who is still the Blind Bandit, she is 13 when they meet. The talk with her family is a bit more uptight and formal, think nobility that thinks they are royalty and not just rich merchants (add an additional month onto this). Still run into Zuko/Iroh/Azula and have the BEST scene ever. Appa being taken still happens, Katara has to stop Aang in the Avatar State…the solar eclipse they discover takes place in a year.

Journey to Ba Sing Se (2nd half of S2) – takes place over eight months

Glaring difference is that Toph discovers Iroh and Zuko in the Lower Ring with their tea shop. She is unsure about what to do until Iroh sits down with her for some tea and explains things to her. From there everything else happens at a much slower pace, the King will still not see them, the Dai Li are still an evil organization, Azula still takes over Ba Sing Se, Zuko still betrays Katara in the catacombs, Aang is still killed, and Iroh is still taken prisoner.

Timeline is a year.

Road to Invasion (1st half of S3) – take places over a year

Aang is out for five months after being shot with lightning, the group hides in with the FN population. Katara becomes the Painted Lady, however, none of the group learns of her activities and she maintains the persona well after. She runs into the Blue Spirit along their stint across the FN. Zuko was brought back as a hero and then sent on a tour of some of the colonies closest to the FN where he maintains his Blue Spirit persona. Tour isn’t super long but during that time he learns this isn’t what he wants, Mai also is understanding and leaves with Ty Lee during the Day of the Black Sun arc. He also knows the Avatar is still alive (boy isn’t that stupid but he is still angsty). Katara still learns bloodbending, she is more harden in this version and she promises Aang not to do it anymore BUT she also takes a moment to think things over at night.

Sozin’s Comet (2nd half of S3) – takes place over a year

Same start to this arc. Zuko isn’t as awkward, but he still has trouble explaining what he means (boy is GUILTY). Katara still threatens to kill him. Instead of Combustion Man, FN soldiers find them bc Ozai told them to trail Zuko when he left to kill him. He saves the Gaang and starts to become his teacher. Boiling Rock happens bc of course it does but it takes place over an entire month, only this time Azula doesn’t have Mai and Ty Lee with her, she just had soldiers to help catch them. Zuko starts to see his sister slipping a bit (we still getting the Angi Kai though, Azula will just be a little more unstable). Southern Raiders happens and Katara kills the man bc he wasn’t that weak and defenseless as the show made it. Ember Island takes place over six months. Aang leaves soon after the Ember Island Players, for the first time (give it two weeks where he starts to work through his emotional intelligence). Aang with leave again, a month before the Comet which will have everything happen as it should. Ozai defeated, Azula defeated, Ba Sing Se reclaimed.

Timeline is two years.

Total timeline is four years.

Fifth Peace Summit – takes place over three weeks

Zuko – Fire Lord, 27

Sokka – Future Cheif of Southern Water Tribe, 26

Katara – Master Waterbender, Mater Healer, Ambassador for the Southern Water Tribe, 25

Suki – Head of Fire Lord Zuko’s Security Detail, Kyoshi Warrior Captain, 26

Toph – Beifong heiress, Master Earthbender, Master Metalbender, Creator of Beifong Metalbending Academy, 23

Aang – Avatar, Peacekeeper, Ambassador for the Air Nomads, 23

Azula – Fire Nation Princess, 25

Ursa – Fire Lady, age unknown

Iroh – Retired General, Fire Nation Councilman, Tea Shop Owner, age unknown

Zuko and Katara had a moment at Ember Island but once the war ended, they decided to work on their nations, to help bring about peace. They have not seen each other besides at the summits for the last four years, during the first year Katara stayed at the palace for six months healing Zuko’s new scar but left soon after to go back to the SWT to bridge the gap between the NWT. They have spoken via letters, spoke about their frustrations, dreams, and desires that they have for the new world. Their unspoken desire for each other has not faltered over the years and in fact was flamed via their written correspondence. While no one knew about their moment on Ember Island, their friends and family were not blind to what was going on between them.

MLB × FIRST KILL AU

It was exactly 1:20 am when I start writing this, so most of it might just be sleep deprivation, but I want to share it

So I decided to rewatch First Kill (you know, the lesbian vampire/vampire hunter series that Netflix canceled) for no reason at all, and since my addiction to Miraculosa had also returned, I began to wonder... SO!

Spoiler warning

Possible triggers(?): Mention of blood, mention of murder

Our protagonists

Marinette Dupain-Cheng: Our sweet, gentle vampire who has never killed anyone or drunk blood directly from a person. She's just turned 16 and her family was pressuring her to finally kill someone. But how could someone who has lived among humans all her life kill one just to feed? Not her. Not until she had to defend the girl she liked.

Kagami Tsurugi: The youngest daughter of a famous hunting family. After failing in her first hunt, she gets a new chance after discovering a clan of vampires in the city; if she killed one of them, she would win her mother and clan's approval. But that vampire was so sweet, so innocent, so... Oh, no, she'd developed feelings for her!

The Dupain-Cheng's, the most respected family among vampires

Sabine: The matriarch, future protector of the Serpent and, unfortunately, her mother's dismay.

Tom: The man Sabine turned into a vampire so they could be together for eternity

Socqueline: The protective big sister, she seems harmless until she has to be fed

Bridgette: Socqueline's "evil" twin, a misunderstood soul who disappeared years ago

The Tsurugi's, an ancient lineage of hunters

Tomoe: The strict mother. She had a difficult past after being blinded by a monster, but she rebuilt herself and now has a family to protect

Wu Shifu (I'll think of a name for him later): The honorable man who was promised in marriage to Tomoe after the "incident"

Longg: Wu's son from his first marriage, a calm boy. The Tsurugi clan has turned its back on him, but he doesn't care

Fei: The adopted daughter, it took a while for the Tsurugi clan to accept her, but now she's the heir and a cool older sister

Other characters

Felix Graham de Vanille: A witch involved with Bridgette, he plans something for his partner's hometown

Adrien Agreste: Marinette's best friend. He has a complicated relationship with an older student, which none of his friends approve of

The two are related, but do not know each other

Alya: Also Marinette's best friend, I don't know what to do with her, but she's here

Lila Rossi: She dies and comes back as a zombie and dies again

Chloe: Kagami's ex. She is a little more tolerable, although she still uses her parents' high status as hunters

Andre e Audrey: They show up to die

Nino: One of Marinette's few vampire friends. He should only appear once

The plot

Kagami and her family have just moved to this town in the French countryside. In the past, the town was overrun by monsters, but none have been seen for years thanks to the hunters. Now they're back, and the Tsurugis have to find out why.

There's this strange girl who stares at Kagami at school and gets into accidents when Kagami is around. This behavior makes Kagami suspicious of her, so she starts staring back.

Marinette finally finds the courage to approach her and invites her to a party at Lila's house. Her perfume has a distinctive smell that makes Kagami discover that Marinette is a vampire.

At the party, they sit alone for a while, talking, until they notice their faces coming closer. For some reason, Kagami's scent is strangely attractive and, without thinking, Marinette bites her neck, which causes Kagami to react and pull out a silver knife and strike Marinette's heart. Kagami runs away thinking she had killed her.

She didn't.

I could explain more and go into a whole alternative world, but I really need to sleep now. This will probably have a part 2 next time I can't sleep on time.

The Buffy Re-watch: S2E5 (part 2)

Reptile Boy

One reason I get annoyed with Angel is the way he talks to Buffy, he treats her like a child who doesn't understand her own mind. She might be 16 but that doesn't give him an excuse to talk down to her. He should talk to her like the young woman she is becoming.

Buffy lying to Giles, can't be good.

A sign of friendship, sharing snacks and drinks.

PSA time: Don't give in to peer pressure to do things you do not feel comfortable doing. If people or friends cannot accept your decisions then reconsider being around them. I speak from personal experience here, especially where alcohol is concerned. Drink culture in the UK is absolutely horrible if you are someone who doesn't drink. I've been called boring for not drinking, been told by friends that the reason they don't invite me out is because I don't drink and people think I will be judging them because they do. In all honest, I don't give a shit. It's your life and money, all I ask is that you don't force it on me. Simple. One story I can give to is that when I was 19 I worked as a waitress in a restaurant, and one night after closing all the staff that were there that night, sat around to have a few drinks and chat. One of the chefs saw I wasn't drinking and asked if I wanted one, I said no. A few minutes later, he asked again, I still said no. Then he asked again, and again, and again, and again. This went on for 20 minutes possibly 30, and every time he asked I said no. He only stopped asking because our boss, one of the managers, told him to stop and leave me alone. To which he did. But only because someone else told him to. The important thing is that I stood my ground, and if you are in a similar situation you should too. I know sometimes the situation can be scary, but your comfort and safety is more important than anything else.

Xander is not exactly a covert secret agent.

Older guy thinking younger girl is mature for her age. Do not be persuaded by this as a reason for someone liking you.

Oh no, Xander got made. He wasn't exactly inconspicuous.

Broken glass and boarded up windows, not good.

BTW, I like Buffy's dress.

Buffy and alcohol rarely go well together. This episode, 'Beer Bad, and 'Life Serial' really help to illustrate that.

So, the girl from the opening 'Callie' has been missing a week. How have they been keeping her alive?

I feel bad for Xander, the humiliation the frat boy are subjecting him to would be mortifying.

Buffy's drink was spiked! The drink she was given at the beginning of the party was probably spiked too. This is unfortunately an all too common story nowadays. There is also an increase of people being injected while on nights out. If this has happened to you, I am so very sorry that you have had to experience that. You have my deepest sympathies.

And then too make matters worse Richard, one of the frat boys tries to assault Buffy. His buddy Tom might stop him, but it's only so she can be fed to a demon. You sure we can't kill these guys?

Ritual sacrifices, 3 girls every year to get rich. Misogynistic assholes.

Willow going off on Giles and Angel. Let them have is girl! Stand up for your bestie.

Cultists can go get fucked.

Machida, weird reptile, snake demon. I feel for the person who had wear that costume.

'Hey, reptile boy' Buffy said the thing.

'No woman speaks to him.' Again, get fucked, ass clown.

Frat houses are technically public places since no one singular person or family lives there, which means Angel can go straight in.

You get your revenge, Xander.

And kill that demon Buffy. All is well again.

I think the reason why Giles pushes Buffy as much as he does is because he is scared of losing her again. So, he wants her to be extra prepared so that she never has to go through it again. I'm glad he backs off a bit, he sees where he is going wrong and changes to support her in the way she needs. I also like that he is not harsh on her for lying either.

Using Jonathan as your gopher Cordy. Now I feel sorry for him.

Hey, there's something we don't see often, real world consequences to human murderers on this show.

Xander is at least polite to Angel when greeting him after insulting him. That's a step in the right direction. A very tiny step.

Angel asks Buffy out on a date, finally. But you have to tune in for next time to see how it goes. Good to know that Willow actually got through to him.

This ended up being a lot longer than I expected. I like my tangents.

[simplynotcapable]

how do you think Visenya and Baelon would've done if they got incarnated later into the Targaryen dynasty? Kids of Aegon V, or siblings of Aerys II or siblings of Rhaegar or something?

Hi anon!

I think if Baelon and Visenya were born at almost any other time (assuming Baelon was not a firstborn son), they would be largely footnotes on the grander scheme of history. Baelon doesn’t really want the throne or power, he just takes on the responsibility because he feels like it would disrespect his mother’s sacrifice to do otherwise. In a part of history where his father didn’t kill his mother for him, he’s going to care even less.

So as kids of Aegon V:

We’re assuming Baelon is born after Duncan and Jaehaerys, but even if he wasn’t our boy is probably not going to be king. Way more likely he punts it off to his younger brother.

Aegon V was very against incestuous marriages, so Baelon and Visenya would be betrothed to other people. I say that probably lasts right up until they’re 15-16 years old at most because they’re going to run off and get married. I think the difference here between them running off and Jaehaerys and Shaera doing the same thing is that Baelon and Visenya probably aren’t going to go back. Because like…what’s waiting for them there? An angry father, royal duties, responsibilities neither of them have ever really wanted or asked for? They’re going to steal a bunch of shit right before they leave the Keep, get married, and then fuck off to somewhere like Essos. They’ll live their silly little lives being in love and careless and dumb.

It’s likely they’d still be alive during Robert’s Rebellion and even for the events of the series, but I don’t think they’d involve themselves very much. Definitely not in the wars themselves because they wrote themselves out of it on purpose and also they’re old now. They don’t know any of the Targaryens still alive or particularly care about them. They don’t have the same sense of familial loyalty that they do when they’re born during the Dance, and what they did have for their siblings did not transfer over to their brother’s kids and grandkids.

Robert has people watching them undoubtedly, but I don’t think he’d try to have them killed. They’re both old and fled the throne once, there’s no indication they’d want to fight for it now.

They would support Dany’s claim, though, in a very distant “yeah hope she gets it back” kind of way, and they would be very excited at the thought of her bringing back the dragons.

Since we don’t know how the books end yet, I can’t really say for sure beyond that point, except Baelon and Visenya are perfectly happy where they are and aren’t getting involved with anything even if asked.

Siblings of Aerys II:

(We are again assuming Aerys’s younger siblings.)

Baelon and Visenya are going to be married, though we’ll leave it up in the air why Jaehaerys felt strongly enough to argue with his father about it. Maybe the wood witch’s prophecy involved them, too.

Robert’s Rebellion never happens because Baelon’s gonna kill Aerys himself.

One thing that mostly always stays the same about Baelon is that he is very protective of his sisters. Especially Visenya but all of his sisters. Baelon does not let people put their hands on his sisters, full stop, regardless of every other factor of his relationship with them. He doesn’t have a particularly close relationship with Rhaella. They aren’t even friends, really, it’s nothing like our Baelon’s relationship with Rhaenyra. But the second he finds out Aerys is abusing her, he’s a dead man.

Which is a difficult decision, no doubt, because Baelon does care about his brother in his own way, but he has been watching him spiral further and further into madness every year. And now his unhappy marriage has turned into an abusive one, and Visenya tells him that Rhaella cries in the night??

Baelon very cheerfully decides to become a kinslayer, and Visenya is basically like “okay babe be safe love you”

I’m not sure how exactly he’d manage it, being as Aerys was so damned paranoid about everything and everyone, but he’d find a way. Single-handedly saving the Targaryen dynasty by murdering his brother before he can kill Ned Stark’s dad and brother, before Rhaegar takes Lyanna. Rhaegar probably isn’t even married to Elia yet.

Downside, Dany and Viserys won’t exist because their dad is dead well before they’re supposed to be born.

Now, the real question after this is Rhaegar.

Rhaegar was reportedly very uneasy about his father but hoping to just wait him out, since Tywin was handling matters of ruling pretty well, and he didn’t want to have to move against his father. But I don’t think that would be enough to make him be like “yeah okay unc, fair enough, you’re good”, especially since Aerys wouldn’t have yet reached the height of his madness. At the very, very, very least he’d get sent to the wall, but it’s way more likely he’d be executed.

Visenya can’t go to the wall, and they can’t be together if Baelon is dead, so they must likely bolt immediately after he kills Aerys and do not come back. Unlike when they do this as Aegon V’s children, they are never going to be able to just sit still and live. They are going to spend the rest of their lives running, and whether they get caught or not entirely depends on how viciously Rhaegar decides to chase them.

Or at least a good bit of their lives, until the Long Night comes and Rhaegar has bigger problems to worry about because Baelon might have accidentally made it so the prince(ss) who was promised was never born.

(I am a firm believer that it is Dany, but I know that is only a theory so decide on that how you will.)

Rhaegar’s siblings:

This is the one case where I think that Baelon and Visenya would fight for the throne, less because they want it or care but because of the murder of their family.

I think it would be interesting if they and Dany were triplets because of the whole three-headed dragon thing, but it’s more likely they were born between Viserys and Dany.

(If they were closer in age to Rhaegar, Baelon would be on the battlefield with him and Visenya back with Elia at the Keep, so they would both be dead.)

The thing is that Baelon and Viserys are constantly at each other’s throats, because Viserys is a nasty little shit who thinks he’s special. Baelon is younger than him, and, like Aemond, he’s small until he hits puberty and has several gigantic growth spurts. Viserys is older and bigger, so for a long while of their childhood Baelon can’t really do anything when one of them “wakes the dragon” and their brother has a fit.

Once he does suddenly shoot up to significantly bigger than Viserys, the dragon wakes a lot less.

Shocker.

Viserys also initially wants to sell Visenya to the Dothraki, and when Baelon immediately has a knife pointed at him, he tells him if it isn’t Visenya then it will have to be Dany. And Baelon looks at Dany and Visenya, kind of huddled up against each other, and Dany’s thirteen. She’s a baby. His baby sister, and he loves her so much, he does.

He loves Visenya more.

He never really forgives himself for it.

He spends most of his time very drunk for a while after Dany is married, or lurking near Visenya because he’s very suspicious of the khalasar. Fights with Viserys a lot more.

Has to shove his head into a bucket of water and scream when he finds out his little sister, tiny and small and so fucking young, is pregnant. Visenya holds him, but sometimes he catches her looking at Dany with this guilt on her face.

And they both know they would be dead already, if they’d let Visenya be the one, because they couldn’t stay apart and Drogo would have caught them together, but it doesn’t make it easier.

When Viserys is killed, Dany turns to look at him. With her big eyes and her soft face, and she’s looking at him like she expects him to do something, and Baelon isn’t even thinking when he kneels.

Visenya only looks at him for a moment before she kneels too.

(“You are the elders,” Dany said, uncertainly, later that night.

“And you,” said Baelon, “are khaleesi.”)

They are, admittedly, not that upset when Drogo dies. Delighted, a little, in fact, though they hurt to see Dany hurt. She does not see the atrocities that they see when they think of her marriage, because she is young and thinks she knows love.

Baelon has never heard his sisters scream the way that they do when the baby dies.

He has never screamed the way he screams when Dany walks into the pyre.

(He has never wept the way he weeps when she walks back out.)

There are three Targaryens for three dragons, and, wherever Dany goes, it’s with Baelon on her right and Visenya on her left. It’s love, for the most part, and it’s guilt for what they allowed to happen to her, but it is loyalty as only dragons can show it.

Three dragons conquered Westeros once, and three dragons do the same all over again.

I hope this kind of answers what you were asking for?? It was fun to think about :)

Let’s go on a killing spree!!!

This store is based on two role-plays me, and @maridemira did

Jackson pov

I was going to go on a killing spree like I do every Saturday night but I wanted to take Max with me so I didn’t feel alone so I walked out of the house and went to the shed where dad kept his shotgun and I took it and then went to go wake up Max

Jackson: hay max do you want to go on a killing spree with me?

Max: sure but don’t you normally like going alone?

Jackson: yes, I do but I guess I want some company

Max and Jackson leave the house and walk to  the nearest city they can find and start walking around to find people to kill

Jackson: let’s hope mom doesn’t wake up 

Max: why?

Jackson: because she will freak out when she sees we’re not in our rooms you know how protective she is

Max: well yes but mom doesn’t want us getting hurt or arrested 

Jackson: yes I get why she wants us to be safe

Max:* points at a group of people* should I rip them apart or should you shoot them?

Jackson: you can rip them apart

Max runs to the group of people and kills them all 

Jackson: alright let’s keep moving

Max and Jackson walk for another half an hour and Jackson hears police sirens,

Jackson: max we got to hide 

Max: why?

Jackson:*pushes Max into his pocket dimension* just stay in there 

Police officer 1:*  points his gun at Jackson* freeze put your hands in the air!!

Jackson kills all the police officers and goes into his pocket dimension

Max: what was that for?!

Jackson: because I had to deal with them myself max

Max: why?

Jackson: because they probably would’ve just shot you if you tried to kill them and dad hasn’t taught you use his gun yet

Max: yes, I know I’m still jealous because of it

Jackson: well, maybe when you don’t have noodle arms anymore, I can help you* laughs,*

Max: hay!

Max and Jackson leave the pocket dimension

Meanwhile, with Larry and lanky

Lanky:* walking into Jackson’s room* that’s weird why is Jackson not here? Hay Larry have you seen Jackson anywhere? He’s not in his room neither is Max

Larry: no I haven’t and the shed door is open and my gun is missing 

All of a sudden, the news comes on

News reporter, : breaking news, to boys have been spotted around the streets of California a picture of the suspects the one attack in the cameraman appears to be a pale skinny 12 year old boy the male behind the boy appears to be a 16-year-old male wearing dark gray pants and a vest carrying what looks to be a shotgun from WW1 if you see these boys contact the police immediately

Larry: we gotta go look for them

Meanwhile, with Max and Jackson

Max: I knew we get caught by the police now we’re probably gonna be in the news!!! 

Jackson: yes, I know, and you didn’t have to attack the cameraman!

Max: you know, I hate it when people take pictures of my face 

Jackson: well, it doesn’t matter mom and dad are probably freaking out

Max: yeah, probably

A few hours later, Max and Jackson killed a few more people, and went home (I would add more but I’m too lazy )

max: should we just go in our rooms and acted like nothing happened?

Jackson: no, let’s just see if mom and dad are here

Larry: where were you to?

Jackson:* Whispers * sh!t

Max: uhhhh we were in our rooms 

Larry: don’t lie to me, Max and Jackson if you two are in your rooms, why where you on the news do you not know how worried your mom was?

Jackson: OK fine we went on a murder spree

Larry: Jackson, I’m fine with you killing people just ask if you can take my gun don’t just take it 

Max: are we in trouble?

Larry: for killing people no for taking my gun without asking yes

Larry: i’m gonna have a talk with you boys but we’re glad you’re all right

Cutting contact: should schools be allowed to keep contact sports compulsory?

Many of us look back on our school days fondly, remembering the camaraderie we had with our peers. Some would’ve found this on the pitches and courts as we fought arm in arm for pride and bragging rights. Lifelong friends were made, and achievements won that still make us proud.

However, have you ever stopped to consider what was put on the line to curate these trophy cabinets? Should schools require students to participate in contact sports knowing what we know now. With concussion related symptoms all the way to largely increased risks of dementia in later years, we understand the risks better than we ever have. Should this be allowed to continue? What are the alternatives? How can YOU help change the status quo?

The Controversy

The age to consent and participate varies between activities in the UK.

At the ages of 16 and 18 young people are given access to:

Begin full time work.

Give consent to having sex.

Drop out of education.

Vote.

Take out a loan.

Get married.

Purchase tobacco.

Purchase alcohol.

Gamble.

Fight in a war.

This is because children lack the decision making, experience and information to properly consider the consequences*. We have to be older before we can understand how these activities will affect us in the long run. So, to protect our youngest generation, we block them out.

As a society we now know a lot about head injuries, but the non-scientists among us don’t. This means students and parents are missing one of the criteria for being able to participate and, more importantly, consent. But even if we are informed, we still don’t get a choice?

Just over four-fifths of state-funded secondary school boys, and one-half of secondary school girls were exposed to Rugby Union within their secondary school physical education. After soccer and athletics, Rugby Union was the third-highest activity that was made compulsory for boys (208 of 229 schools, 91%)*.

Consent

When voluntarily participating in sport, we know there is a higher risk of injury than everyday life. We decide on our own what amount of risk is acceptable for us*. As physical education is part of the UK’s curriculum* that decision instead goes to the school and governing bodies. If their level of acceptable risk is higher than our own, then we have not provided consent.

Informed consent

Informed consent by definition is “providing appropriate information to a competent individual to promote understanding and decision making”*. If they expect students to participate, they should inform the parents of the risks of participation. We deserve to make an informed choice!

The Science

Put simply, head injuries are bad. That’s the issue and what’s most important to remember.

Short term

Concussions are something we are all aware of, whether we’ve had them, given one to someone else or done both at the same time with a teammate (sorry James). Research shows that after a first concussion, baseline cognitive functioning returns after 48 hours*.

However, second impact syndrome (SIS) can kill. SIS is when a second head impact is taken before the first has fully healed, with worse outcomes more likely in children. In 17 cases studied, 10 out of 12 cases with poor outcomes (death or permanent disability) were under 18 years old. Whereas 4 out of 5 cases with good outcomes were over 19 years old*. This can happen as long as a month after the first injury. Click here for an article about 14 year old Benjamin Robinson who died of SIS whilst playing rugby in the UK.

Mental health issues have also been heavily linked to concussions in under 18’s. There is a greater chance of mental health visit’s, psychiatric hospitalization, and self-harm post-concussion*. This presents the need to follow a student closely and assess for mental health issues that have arisen after an injury, both at home and school. Communication must be paramount between schools and parents to make the best assessment for the child’s wellbeing. I personally received a minor concussion whilst playing rugby for my school and did not receive any follow up checks.

Long term

Knocks to the head can vary from seemingly minor to life threatening, but even the heading of a football or a whiplash movement can have long lasting damage. These are called head accelerating events (HAEs) and cause low-level cellular damage in the brain, classified as sub-concussive*. These add on to one another, and the more we get the more significant the damage is*.

Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a form of dementia which can occur because of these minor injuries (read more about it here). In one study of ex NFL players, CTE  was found in 110 out of 111 brains studied*. It can cause mood disorders, cognitive difficulties, headaches, suicidal ideation, aggressive behaviour, and difficulty with speech*. It is incurable, it is aggressive, and it can being to happen as young as 17*.

This is worrying, and you should be concerned. The blows we take to the head for this to happen are minor, we won’t have any immediate effects, but it builds up. Not everyone will be afflicted, but seeing what these minor damages can do to the brain in the long term makes you wonder why we expect children to receive them.

Every 1 year younger that participants began to play American football resulted in earlier reported onset of behavioural/mood symptoms by approximately 2.5 years, and cognitive symptoms by approximately 3 years*. If a child starts contact sports in Year 7 in the UK they would be 11 to 12 years old, if we didn’t allow situations for sub-concussive blows until the age of even 16, it would push back the start of these behavioural and cognitive symptoms by more than a decade.

What next?

Firstly, the most important thing anyone can do is educate themselves on the risks involved in repeated head traumas. All of the research done has been linked to the points made in this post. But I urge you to look more in depth at any points that take your interest.

Secondly, if this post affects you or your child, have a discussion with them. If you conclude that you don’t want your child taking part in contact sports remember that it’s a decision that will affect them socially. This is about protecting children from harm whilst still letting them have fun. Also be prepared for backlash from the school, remember you deserve to make an informed decision and do what you think is right.

We are already seeing a shift in the attitudes in football, where the FA are banning headers in all under 12’s over the next few years (read more here). This hopefully begins a paradigm shift in sports where it is easier to take out the parts of the game where HAEs can occur.

For other sports like rugby, where blows are an unavoidable part of the game, we can already see a decline in participation (read more here) due to safety concerns. Perhaps it is time to give non-contact sports the spotlight. Non-contact rugby has been shown to provide a wide range of physical, mental health and well being benefits. Whereas it is unclear if contact rugby offers the same benefits, being dangerous and potentially exclusive*. 

Let me know what you think about this issue in the comments. What should happen next? What will you do next? And always stand up for what you think is right.

How does a woman get shot and killed and her shooter is still on the loose? Residents of Ocala, Florida are asking the same question in the killing of a Black woman who was gunned down by her neighbor Friday. According to NBC News, the incident was the result of an ongoing feud.

Ajike “AJ” Owens’ children were playing in a fieldnear an apartment complex when suddenly, a white woman came from the area and began yelling racial slurs at them, according to an account from attorney Benjamin Crump. One of the children accidentally left behind their iPad which the woman seized. When the child went to retrieve it, the woman allegedly threw the device both hitting the boy and cracking the screen. The woman also allegedly threw a pair of roller skates at the children as well.

Naturally, the children went back home to tell their mother what happened. Owens then walked over to the neighbor’s door to speak to her about the incident but things took a fatal turn.

“She knocked on the door, and at that point, the woman allegedly shot through the door, hitting AJ, who later died from her injuries,” Crump said in the statement.

At a news conference Monday, Marion County Sheriff Billy Woods did not confirm or reject Crump’s account, telling reporters he was not “going to stand here and tell you what they’re putting out there is inaccurate. It’s just I don’t know yet.” Here’s what the sheriff said he does know: - There had been a long-standing “neighborhood feud” between the shooter and Owens about her children. - The children may have been hit by an unspecified object. “Was something thrown at them? Yes, but not directly at them of what we’re being told now,” Woods said. “It just unfortunately may have hit them.” He added: “The children are a big part of answering a lot our questions.” - When Owens came to the shooter’s door, there was a heated exchange. Owens was shot through the door. - At least two of Owens’ four children may have witnessed the shooting, which occurred about 9 p.m.

Because Florida is a good ol’ “stand your ground” state, law enforcement must determine whether Owens posed an imminent threat or was simply acting as a mother trying to get to the bottom of an attack on her children. While they dilly dally on that decision, they are not authorized to make an arrest, the Sheriff Woods said. 

Well... they made an arrest when Andrew Lester shot 16-year-old Ralph Yarl from behind his front door - the same manner Owens was shot - despite Lester’s self-defense claim that he was frightened by the teen.

right! let me set the scene

our dear sad boy protagonist (16 year old) witnesses 5 mean boys in his grade kicking a cat. in an unplanned act of rage he kills one of the boys with his supernatural powers and takes the cat home.

the next day, the remaining 4 boys kill the cat and yell at him for uhhh. killing their friend. the protagonist threatens them all into silence and says if they tell anyone about his epic power he’ll kill them too.

the group of 4 boys are scared of this threat and no longer bully people + avoid the protagonist completely

the protagonist is really really mad about the cat (which was his pet for one single day) so for weeks he plots to get all four of them alone and murder them with his supernatural ability

he enacts his plot and kills all four of them.

and like. im fine with evil protagonists yaay murder but the narrative still presents him as a Sadboi who had no Other Choice when he really really did not have to plan to murder 4 boys like he definitely had options here. and the fic is fineee whatever but like later his boyfriend breaks up with him when he finds out that hes a murderer and he goes on the run and it’s all about how sad he is but like He did choose to kill those 4 boys he did it on purpose. im really not that sympathetic

im sort of rereading one of my fave fics when i was a kid and it got sooo bad im sad i used to think it was the best thing in the world. it’s like 120k so i dont think i’ll finish reread or i might skim the rest but sigh awww what a shame
